    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I fixed a minor but annoying problem. I had installed my Camotek side blinker modules a few weeks ago and it worked great, but my side markers had some overspray of tan paint from when govplanet touched up the truck on the lot. That tan paint made the markers unreasonably hard to see. A bit...

    Winch and weight forward of the front axle

    I'm going off on a lark and adding a winch to my M1165A1. I've secured an ECV front winch plate and am planning on adding a Sherpa 17K winch. What I'm worried about now is the added weight in the front of the vehicle and weight. About 70 pounds for the winch and close to that for the mounting...

    60 Minutes has a story of military vehicle accidents. Tonight NOW west coast.

    Just to share my .02 on rollovers, when I first had my HMMWV in the rugged winters of Colorado I braked hard on a downhill mountain road at about 35 mph. Not being smart enough to pump the brakes, I put the vehicle into a 1080 spin that was terrifyingly and centrifugally bad. Despite that I...

    It's hard -- but not impossible -- to roll your HMMWV.

    M1151 front AC not working - $10 fix

    The older style valves from the M998s with pull cable are a much better choice and also a cheaper replacement. I've had two of the solenoid actuated versions go bad on me.

    HMMWV Side Marker Blinker System!

    I just realized my kit did not include any blinker fluid . . . where can I get some?

    HMMWV Side Marker Blinker System!

    I had independently figured out this "no flashers from the side" thing was a safety issue and was about to wire up some pigtails to bridge the markers into the flasher loop. When I saw this thread I called Cam and ordered one - for the $110 it's a deal. Really well put together and easy to...

    Just a HMMWV and a HMMWV's best friend at 10,000 feet on the way up further.

    Montana - has anyone applied for a front license plate exemption?

    I should add the reason I don’t wants the front plate is it keeps a more military authentic look to the vehicle from the front.

    Montana - has anyone applied for a front license plate exemption?

    Sorry I don't have a brush guard, the photo above isn't my truck, just a stock photo. I don't really have a great place to zip tie unless I take off the plate before hitting the trail each time, it's a pain.

    Montana - has anyone applied for a front license plate exemption?

    Montana is unfortunately a 2-plate state unless you get the exemption, and the truck lives in another 2 plate sTate.

    Montana - has anyone applied for a front license plate exemption?

    For those running on Montana plates - has anyone applied for the exemption from front license plate? I am thinking of putting the winch on the front of my M1165A1 and it will be difficult to mount a plate if I do. HQ-1704-FRONT-PLATE-WAIVER-2.pdf (dojmt.gov) Appreciate if anyone has done this...
